Define Project A project is defined as specific plan or design, planned undertaking and large undertaking. Project is also defined as a planned activity. Example: Public works 2. Define Process [N 11] Process is a set of activities which involves substantial interaction among two or more organizations. If a single organization performs most or all of the activities, the description of those activities is generally considered as procedure. Process description is a document which includes the results of the process definition and describes the process in more detail. 3. List some of the key characteristics of project. [N 12, M -12] Some of the key characteristics of project are Non-routine tasks are involved. Planning is required. The project has a predetermined time span. People are formed into temporary work group to carry out the task. Work is carried out in several phases. The resources that are available for use on the project are constrained. 4. Define Software Project Management Software Project Management is the art and science of planning and leading software projects. It is a sub-discipline of project management in which software projects are planned, monitored and controlled. 5. List out the factors that decide the success of a project. [N 12, M -12] Factors that decide the success of a project are Schedule Scope Cost Quality Staff
2 6. Distinguish between verification and validation. Verification 1) Are we building the product right? 2) Verification refers to the set of activities that ensure that the software correctly implements a specific function. Validation 1) Are we building the right product? 2) Validation refers to a different set of activities that ensure that the software that has been built is traceable to customer requirements. 7. Define Management Management is defined as the combination of set of activities such as planning, organizing, staffing, directing, monitoring, controlling, innovating and representing. Management can also be defined as the challenges fared by the leader/manager of an organization. 8. List out the elements of product description. The elements of product description are the name of the product the purpose of the product the derivation of the product the composition of the product the form of the product the relevant standards 9.

Some of the competencies of project management skills are Documenting plan Estimating cost Estimating effort Managing risks Scheduling Tracking processes 14. Define Feasibility study Feasibility study assesses whether a project is worth starting. Information is gathered about the requirements of the proposed application. The study could be part of a strategic planning exercise examining a range of potential software development. 15. Define Strategic Planning Strategic planning is an organization s process of defining its strategy, or duration and making decisions on allocating its resources to pressure this strategy including its capital and people. It is the process of identifying an organization s long term goals and objectives and then determining the best approach for achieving those goals and objective 16. Define PM Triangle It is a model of the constraints of project management. It is a graphic aid where the three attributes show on the corners of the triangle to show opposition. It is useful to help with intentionally choosing project biases, or analyzing the goals of a project. It is used to illustrate that project management success is measured by the project team's ability to manage the project, so that the expected results are produced while managing time and cost.

[N 12] [N 12] 13. How Net Present Value is calculated for a project? The calculation of net present value is a project evaluation technique that takes into account the profitability of a project and the timing of the cash flows that are produced. The NPV for a project is obtained by discounting each cash flow and summing the discounted value.
7 14. Define IRR [N 11, M - 12] The Internal Rate of Return [IRR] attempts to provide a profitability measure as a percentage return that is directly comparable with interest rates. The IRR is calculated as that percentage discount rate that would produce an NPV of zero.
